There are four essential elements of forming a contract: offer, acceptance, consideration, and intention to create legal relations. Beyond this, the terms of the contract must also be unambiguous, and the parties must have the mental capacity to agree.
The basic elements required for the agreement to be a legally enforceable contract are: mutual assent, expressed by a valid offer and acceptance; adequate consideration; capacity; and legality.
Valid Offer: The offer must be clear and specific. Acceptance: The offeree must accept the offer without modifications. Adequate Consideration: There must be a fair exchange of value between the parties. Legality: The contract's purpose must be lawful.
Typically, formal offers are sent by the buyer's broker to the seller's broker in writing via email. In some cases, a buyer will also write a personal note to the seller to send along with it. That letter is known as a house offer letter.
The Requirements of an Offer The statement of offer must show intent—The statement must reasonably be interpreted to indicate an intention to enter into a binding agreement. The offer must be communicated to the other party—An agreement cannot exist unless the offer is communicated.
“In a buyer's market, I would not hesitate to submit an offer that's around 10% below asking,” advises Chris Cloud of Exit Heritage Realty in Haymarket, VA. “Most sellers will at least see that as worthy of a counteroffer.”
You can always offer 20-50% under asking.
If you get an offer, you must let your client know right away, ideally within an hour or two. Most sellers are very anxious to sell their home and you should let your clients know immediately if an offer comes in on their property. If you receive multiple offers, all offers must be presented until an one accepted.
A letter can be in violation of fair housing laws. Seller's agents who accept them are opening themselves and the sellers up to lawsuits. If you are prejudiced toward one type of buyer or another, fine - just don't let it get put into writing.
